Subject: ACPI: video: Use acpi_video_device for cooling-dev driver data
From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 172c48caed91a978bca078042222d09baea13717 upstream.
The acpi_video code was storing the acpi_video_device as driver_data
in the acpi_device children of the acpi_video_bus acpi_device.
But the acpi_video driver only binds to the bus acpi_device.
It uses, but does not bind to, the children. Since it is not
the driver it should not be using the driver_data of the children's
acpi_device-s.
Since commit 0d16710146a1 ("ACPI: bus: Set driver_data to NULL every
time .add() fails") the childen's driver_data ends up getting set
to NULL after a driver fails to bind to the children leading to a NULL
pointer deref in video_get_max_state when registering the cooling-dev:

Fix this by directly using the acpi_video_device as devdata for
the cooling-device, which avoids the need to set driver-data on
the children at all.
